TV presenter Maya, 27, rolled up at The O2 in London's East End a full four hours before the ceremony was due to begin.

She has to be the first person there as she is conducting the red-carpet interviews for the event.

Yesterday Maya - who recently revealed she is engaged to basketball star Ben Simmons - explained she was having a special massage ahead of the ceremony.

She said: "I want my belly out for Brits and I’ve been eating McDonald’s like a pig, so I will update you on what’s happening."
